Hey guys I just typed this into twitter after checking the booking period and it's only going up to April at the moment so just wondering if anyone knows what's going on? and if it's actually true or not?

Sad news, it was one of things I most wanted to see Queen related if I ever made it to London.

~Godspeed little one~

~Don't talk about angels Or how I'll be saved I'm no coward But I'm not that brave Rags are blowing Rain's getting near I'm done with running And it's getting dark in here~ ~Sleep in peace old friend for me you'll never die~

Does this mean the WWRY musical is finishing totally in the West End or does it just mean it is ending its residency at the Dominion? I know of a few musicals that changed venue as time went on - probably going to a smaller seated theatre when demand wasn't quite as large as when it first started - I think Mamma Mia may have done this but I may be mistaken.

Seems bizarre to finish it totally if it still was making big money and has nearly filled theatres nearly every performance. I remember an article recently saying which were the current grossing top West End musicals - I think the top one was raking in £600K a week but WWRY was up there and taking (still!) £500K a week. If its still a money-spinner then why would they just dump it totally..

1. Stick it on the Fourth PlinthThe commonest suggestion would see the golden rocker permanently adorn Trafalgar Square’s empty plinth. It would also serve as an excellent way to wind up National Gallery Director Nicholas Penny. Some commenters — with a creative sense of proportion — even suggested that Mercury should supplant Nelson on top of the Square’s famous column.

2. Auction the statueAnother common, and very sensible, suggestion is to sell the mighty Freddie to the highest bidder and donate the proceeds to an AIDS charity.

3. Pagan ritualSeveral readers suggested that the statue be employed for some kind of idolatry or pagan worship. @railtonrailton thought that a Wicker Man burning ritual might be in order.

4. Crossrail BaubleReader @JamesBadcock reckons “there must be somewhere to place it within the new Tottenham Court Road station development”. Indeed, Crossrail, which will stop here from 2018, is spending heavily on public art for its stations. What better way to retain a piece of local history and brighten up the atrium?

5. Make it the new MayorA larger-than-life figure with a talent for performance. A man who would regularly declare “I want to ride my bicycle”. A history of being Under Pressure. Freddie Mercury seems to have many of the attributes of our current Mayor, so why not install his golden simulacrum in City Hall? That was the suggestion of reader @CulturalSnow.

6. Give it to Fulham@Relishresearch was the first of several readers to suggest gifting the statue to Fulham FC. The club has little if any connection to the singer, but that didn’t stop them erecting a plastic likeness of Michael Jackson a few years back. The King of Pop has now been evicted and given back to the club’s former owner, Mohammed Al Fayed. Perhaps the eccentric millionaire could take Freddie under his wing, too, and start a sculpture garden of dead singers.

7. Stick it on The MonumentThe Monument to the Great Fire in the City of London is an oft-overlooked landmark. The @londonmonument account suggests “Swap it for my golden flame…Freddie would look pretty awesome on top of the Monument”. Well, Queen did have a song called Put Out The Fire.

8. On the centre of the London EyePerhaps the most bizarre suggestion comes from Liz Macfadyen on Facebook. While we quite like the idea of the oversized Mercury pinned to the middle of the London Eye, endlessly rotating above the water, that’s more Duran Duran’s style.

9. Stick it on the International Space StationFacebook user Jim Copley reckons Freddie should finally ‘break free’ of Earth’s atmosphere to become the centrepiece of the ISS. He does have an astral name, after all. Perhaps he could duet with fellow moustachioed star, Commander Chris Hadfield?

10. Leave it thereReader @DavidSim suggests that the statue has become part of the urban landscape and should be left in place. Amen to that one.

Other suggestions“It would look good on my balcony”: @SAFTweekend“He could hold up the Somerset Levels”: @waynex“Hosting the Hugos”: @arroberts“I would take it and I would melt it down into currency and spend every penny campaigning to remove Queen music from every home, outlet and cloud in existence.” Susan Schultz via Facebook.

In addition, several readers thought our shining hero should be re-erected in Feltham, where Mercury and his family lived in the 1960s. Other locations include Wembley, Brighton, Camden and Hyde Park.
